Description

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

I would love to use motion keys to delete/change text inside an object, for example, 'dik' would delete the key, 'div' would delete the value

Does anyone know how to achieve this?

const ey = {
ey: 'hello world',
vay: 'asdfapdsf'
}
